The Halo Handpan – Your Soul At Play

We are Pantheon Steel. We make the Halo, a handpan simple by design yet with uncompromising quality and integrity. We believe the Halo provides the rarest of gifts, creative freedom. And while the way that you play the Halo is simple, the engineering behind it is of our most advanced.

Perhaps more than any other Halo we have designed, the New Era Halo is a clear example of how sound, design and engineering become one through the handpan. It is the most deliberate evolution of our original handpan and the result of unparalleled innovation.

The Halo handpan is currently available in two sizes, 22 and 23 inches in diameter. For each Halo size we have carefully chosen sound models (or scales) with their own sonic flavor that produce clean and consistent results. Some are bright, others melancholic, and yet others more exotic-sounding. You can try them all by using the Virtual Player (by tapping, clicking or pressing the number keys of your keyboard).

We invite you to sign up for our email newsletter to receive updates about upcoming sales events, lotteries, and other special announcements. When you are ready to embark on your Halo journey, head over to our web store to browse Halos available for immediate purchase.

Pantheon's Tribute to Jim Dusin

Meet Spyros Pan

Spyros Panagiotopoulos – Spyros Pan

“I was born in Athens, Greece. My background is a multidimensional jigsaw puzzle: everything from a bachelors in Economics and a masters in Human Resources to a juggling act (which was featured in a movie), a permaculture design degree, and a photography background. I’ve given solo Handpan concerts in two continents and have three solo handpan studio albums..

I have been a Pantheon Steel team member since 2014.

In April 2007, while working in HR in London, I experienced a serious burn out. It inspired me to quit my current life as I knew it and travel to Madeira to attend a permaculture course. It was there that someone spoke to me about a new and unique instrument from Switzerland, which I acquired a few months later.

By 2008, word was spreading about a new, promising maker from the USA. I asked to join the waiting list to buy a Halo, but due to a mistake, my name was left out. In the fall of 2009, to compensate for the oversight, Pantheon offered me a ‘handicapped’ DXD Halo that was not meant to go for sale. This marked the start of a new friendship.

I cherished the new Halo and took it with me on a Japan music tour in 2010. (I also shot a lot of pictures, a few of which now decorate the walls of the company’s HQ.)

In the years following, my concerts in Greece were becoming more official. I felt the need to have my instruments in perfect tune at all times. With no tuner around, there was only one way for me to achieve that: learn how to retune myself.

In September 2012, I asked Kyle to teach me how to tune my Halo. He was not ready to teach me at that time, but one year later, I asked again and he agreed. I travelled to the Pantheon Steel Headquarters for my first lessons in tuning Halos in November 2014, and have been at it ever since. Currently I maintain a Pantheon Steel tuning workshop in Athens, Greece where I tune Halo AGs (Altered Geometry).”
